In this paper, Ire present the result of feature points recognition and classification of radial pulse by the shape of pulse wave. The recognition algorithm use the method which runs in parallel with both the data of ECG and differential pulse simultaneously to recognize the feature points. Also we specified 3-time elements of pulse wave as main parameters for diagnosis and measured them by execution of algorithm. then we classify the shape of radial pulse by existence and position of feature points.

For exact classification of the defect, good feature selection and classifier is necessary. In this paper, various features such as brightness features, shape features and statistical features are stated and Bayes classifier using Gaussian mixture model is used as classifier. Also feature extraction method based on spectral graph theory is presented. Experimental result shows that feature extraction method using graph Laplacian result in better performance than the result using PCA.

In this paper, we propose a method for finding feature subsets that are effective for classification in an input dataset by using a multi-agent reinforcement learning method. In the field of machine learning, it is crucial to find features suitable for classification. A dataset may have numerous features; while some features may be effective for classification or prediction, others may have little or rather negative effects on results. In machine learning problems, feature selection for increasing classification or prediction accuracy is a critical problem. To solve this problem, we proposed a feature selection method based on reinforced learning. Each feature has one agent, which determines whether the feature is selected. After obtaining corresponding rewards for each feature that is selected, but not by the agents, the Q-value of each agent is updated by comparing the rewards. The reward comparison of the two subsets helps agents determine whether their actions were right. These processes are performed as many times as the number of episodes, and finally, features are selected. As a result of applying this method to the Wisconsin Breast Cancer, Spambase, Musk, and Colon Cancer datasets, accuracy improvements of 0.0385, 0.0904, 0.1252 and 0.2055 were shown, respectively, and finally, classification accuracies of 0.9789, 0.9311, 0.9691 and 0.9474 were achieved, respectively. It was proved that our proposed method could properly select features that were effective for classification and increase classification accuracy.

In this paper, we proposed the feature selection algorithm for multi-class genre classification. In our proposed algorithm, we developed GMM separation score based on Gaussian mixture model for measuring separability between two genres. Additionally, we improved feature subset selection algorithm based on sequential forward selection for multi-class genre classification. Instead of setting criterion as entire genre separability measures, we set criterion as worst genre separability measure for each sequential selection step. In order to assess the performance proposed algorithm, we extracted various features which represent characteristics such as timbre, rhythm, pitch and so on. Then, we investigate classification performance by GMM classifier and k-NN classifier for selected features using conventional algorithm and proposed algorithm. Proposed algorithm showed improved performance in classification accuracy up to 10 percent for classification experiments of low dimension feature vector especially.

In this paper, in order to avoid the deterioration of the pattern classification performance which results from the curse of dimensionality, we propose a new feature selection method. The newly proposed feature selection method is based on Fuzzy C-Means clustering algorithm which analyzes the data points to divide them into several clusters and the concept of a function with fuzzy numbers. When it comes to the concept of a function where independent variables are fuzzy numbers and a dependent variable is a label of class, a fuzzy number should be related to the only one class label. Therefore, a good feature is a independent variable of a function with fuzzy numbers. Under this assumption, we calculate the goodness of each feature to pattern classification problem. Finally, in order to evaluate the classification ability of the proposed pattern classifier, the machine learning data sets are used.

In this paper, the classification rate of micro-cracks in silicon wafers was improved using a SVM. In case I, we investigated how feature data of micro-cracks and SVM parameters affect a classification rate. As a result, weighting vector and bias did not affect the classification rate, which was improved in case of high cost and sigmoid kernel function. Case II was performed using a more high quality image than that in case I. It was identified that learning data and input data had a large effect on the classification rate. Finally, images from cases I and II and another illumination system were used in case III. In spite of different condition images, good classification rates was achieved. Critical points for micro-crack classification improvement are SVM parameters, kernel function, clustered feature data, and experimental conditions. In the future, excellent results could be obtained through SVM parameter tuning and clustered feature data.

A holistic representation, such as sparse ceding or independent component analysis (ICA), was successfully applied to explain early auditory processing and sound classification. In contrast, Part-based representation is an alternative way of understanding object recognition in brain. In this paper. we employ the non-negative matrix factorization (NMF)［1］which learns parts-based representation for sound classification. Feature extraction methods from spectrogram using NMF are explained. Experimental results show that NMF-based features improve the performance of sound classification over ICA-based features.

In this paper a new feature extraction and target classification method is proposed for the recognition part of FLIR(Forwar Looking Infrared)-image-based ATR system. Proposed feature extraction method is "cluster(=set of classes)-based"version of previous fisherfaces method that is known by its robustness to illumination changes in face recognition. Expecially introduced class clustering and cluster-based projection method maximizes the performance of fisherfaces method. Proposed target image classification method is based on the mixture of experts model which consists of RBF-type experts and MLP-type gating networks. Mixture of experts model is well-suited with ATR system because it should recognizee various targets in complexed feature space by variously mixed conditions. In proposed classification method, one expert takes charge of one cluster and the separated structure with experts reduces the complexity of feature space and achieves more accurate local discrimination between classes. Proposed feature extraction and classification method showed distinguished performances in recognition test with customized. FLIR-vehicle-image database. Expecially robustness to pixelwise sensor noise and un-wanted intensity variations was verified by simulation.

In pattern classification, the Bhattacharyya distance has been used as a class separability measure. Furthemore, it is recently reported that the Bhattacharyya distance can be used to estimate error of Gaussian ML classifier within 1-2% margin. In this paper, we propose a feature extraction method utilizing the Bhattacharyya distance. In the proposed method, we first predict the classification error with the error estimation equation based on the Bhauacharyya distance. Then we find the feature vector that minimizes the classification error using two search algorithms: sequential search and global search. Experimental reslts show that the proposed method compares favorably with conventional feature extraction methods. In addition, it is possible to determine how man, feature vectors arc needed for achieving the same classification accuracy as in the original space.
